What Causes Delay In Periods After Taking Birth Control Pills?

My daughter was going to start her birth control (after being off it for 6months) she too a pill, then decided the next day that she should actually follow the directions and wait to take them when she starts her cycle. She is now about a week late. Is it possible she messed up her cycle by taking that one pill early? Getting a bit stressed here.
